"Welcome!

　When I opened the entrance door and entered the store, the clerks in formal uniforms greeted me with their heads bowed in unison.

　I was surprised: .......

　I've never been in this store before, but I didn't think it would be the kind of place that would give me VIP treatment right from the start: .......

　I'm going to have to rethink what I'm wearing to make sure I'm okay with the dress code.
　It's funny.
　I'm here to buy equipment, so why am I feeling like this equipment is okay?

　My three students are all looking at me with anxious eyes, as if they're hanging on.
　I know, right?

　...... Good.
　I've got to get a grip here.

　I regained my composure and walked into the store.
　Rio, Iris, and Maifa are following me, grabbing the hems of my clothes and following me with trepidation.

　Just like the show windows you can see from the outside of the store, there were many colorful weapons and armor on display inside the store.
　All of them were beautiful and visually designed.

　But as I looked around at the items, I suddenly felt a sense of discomfort.

　I wonder what ...... is.
　For the price, the quality of the armor is not that great. .......

　One of the skills of the brave is "connoisseurship".

　This is a skill that is different from general connoisseurship, which is based on a vast amount of knowledge, and is a skill that allows you to see the intrinsic "power" of the object itself.

　I am also trained in this "connoisseurship" skill, and just now I briefly explored the products in the store, but I felt that none of the weapons had much "power" despite their high prices.

　No, technically, there are a few pieces of armor that look like the "real thing", but they are the most expensive items in the store, and even then, I don't think the quality is worth the price.

　Well, the skill of "connoisseurship" is also a kind of vague "intuition," and when it is off, it is off.

　This is why the majority of brave men and women consider connoisseurship to be a useless skill that is not worth the trouble of learning, and my judgment of the performance of armor based on connoisseurship is only "maybe" if it can be relied upon. .......

　I'm sure you'll be able to understand why I've been so impressed with the products in the store," said one of the male clerks, walking up to us with a graceful gesture.

"Welcome, sir. What kind of products are you looking for today?

　I responded by showing him my three students.

I'm here to buy some equipment for them.

　The three of them, by the way, are trembling and trembling as if they are frightened, and they are leaning against me.
　They seem to be completely absorbed by the atmosphere.

　The male clerk, on the other hand, bows in response to my answer, and continues.

Thank you very much, sir. If you don't mind, I'd like to show you around the store. What rank of product are you looking for?

"Let's see, ...... rank, or ......?

　What, is there a general ranking system for weapons and armor?
　I've never heard of it before.

　But the shopkeeper responds with a cool face, as if it were a matter of course.

"Yes. We know that you have a budget problem, so we categorize our products into different ranks to guide you.

"Well, ......

If you don't mind, if you tell us what kind of budget you're looking for, we'll be able to guide you to the right ranked products.

　Hmmm .......
　At this stage, I was beginning to think that I might as well not buy from this store.

　There might be some brave people who would be attracted by this atmosphere and buy something, but I think it would be better to visit at least a few more stores before deciding what to buy and where to buy it.

　But it's not a bad idea to have a look at the products for information.

I'm sorry, ......, but I haven't decided whether or not to buy from this store yet. I'd like to take a look at the products first, is that okay?

Yes, of course.

Then please do. I have a budget of one hundred and eighty large gold coins, which will be enough to buy weapons and armor for three people.

"Very well, sir. This way, please. This way, ladies.

　The shopkeeper led Rio, Iris, and Maifa to the store, and the three of them tensed up and followed the shopkeeper.
　I followed leisurely behind.

　We were then led to the second floor of the store.

　On the second floor, there was an array of gorgeous weapons and armor priced from twenty to fifty large gold coins.

　Incidentally, this price of twenty to fifty large gold coins is a very respectable amount.

　The annual income of an average ordinary person, a craftsman or a farmer, is about 30 to 60 large gold coins, so buying one or two of them would be enough to blow away their annual income.

　Well, that's what high quality armor is all about.
　Even an ordinary set of plate armor that doesn't use rare materials costs about this much, and it's not a surprising price.

　The only problem with ...... is that the quality doesn't seem to be worth the price.

　There are weapons and light armor made of mithril and other magical metals, as well as jackets, shirts, pants, and robes made of rare special reinforced fibers.

　However, despite the skill of the visual designers, the functional performance of the armor is not as good as it could be, perhaps because the armor craftsmen have not yet caught up.

　But...

I'm not sure what to make of it.　Wow, I like ......, I like ......!

What do you think of ...... this robe?　I think it's really pretty and cute. ......

"...... Brother, the design of this spear is quite good. The design of this spear is pretty cool. ......

　In the event that you're in the market for a brand-new pair of shoes or boots, then you're in the right place.

　Hmmm ...... I'm in trouble.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.

　But I'm not sure that my "connoisseurship" is 100% foolproof either. .......

　Well, in any case, this is an issue to take home.
　I don't want to make a quick decision here and now.

　That's what I thought, and that's when I was about to tell the clerk.

"Welcome back, Miss Liselle!

　I heard the clerks chanting in unison from the first floor.



　After that, many footsteps came up the stairs from downstairs, and eventually a group of them arrived at the second floor where we were.

　At the head of the group was an elf girl.

　No, she was just a girl who looked like one, but as a long-lived elf, she was most likely much older than me.

　She has a slender yet gracefully curvy body that is typical of elves, and is about the same height as Rio and Iris.

　She has graceful blond hair, a beautiful face with long pointed ears, and emerald eyes.

"Oh, you have a visitor?

　The elf girl said and walked towards us.

　The girl's own good looks are impressive, but what she wears is also amazing.

　Her clothes and ornaments are coordinated all over her body with things that can be easily recognized at a glance as expensive.

　But it's not that she has bad taste at all, it's just that her own appearance and these ornaments are in perfect harmony, making her look like a walking work of art.

　The shopkeeper who was accompanying us said to the girl, "Yes, Miss Liselle," and then introduced the elf girl to me as follows.

"Sir. I am Lizel, the owner-meister, the manager of this store and the first craftsman.

　The shopkeeper stepped back, and the elf girl came up to me, bowed gracefully, and smiled at me.

She smiled at me and said, "Welcome, sir. I hope you like our products.

　In addition, behind the elf girl, Liselle, several black-clad heroes wearing sunglasses are glaring at her as if they were her bodyguards.

　You can find a lot more than just a few of them.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a great idea. It's a great selection, and the visual design is excellent.

　When I replied in a matter-of-fact manner, the elf girl Liselle showed a slightly complicated expression.

　She may have sensed the nuance of what I was trying to avoid mentioning.

　But she was a professional.
　He didn't say anything more, but continued.

"Well, I'm flattered. By the way, are those three ladies with you?

　This is the first time I've ever seen such a thing.

　The three of them have been rummaging through the store's armor for a long time, but now, as if they thought they were being summoned, they start to take an interest in us as well.

　I turn to Liselle and answer.

"Yes. I came here to Ravilton from the countryside to update their equipment.

"Hmm. ....... All three of you are so pretty and beautiful. I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on.　It's a waste of time.

　This time, Liselle stepped in front of Rio, Iris and Maifa.

　I'm not sure what she was thinking, but the elf girl licked the whole body of the three of them.

　She also made a square frame with her fingers, closed one eye and began to stare at the three of them closely.

What's with you, ......?　I'm embarrassed if you stare at me too much.

What is this guy, doctor?　Are all elves like this?

If you want to admire ...... us any more, you'll have to pay what you pay. The only person who can stare at ...... us is my brother.

　In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the web site, you can call us at the web site.

　The elf-owner craftsman then turned to me and said.

"Sir, if I could have a moment of your time, please. I've been looking at these girls and I'm really inspired. I'd like you to let me design a costume just for them.

Haha. ......

　I had no choice but to respond to the sudden offer from the owner of the famous store.

　On the other hand, Liselle took my reply as a sign of approval and asked the shopkeeper, "Please escort these four customers to the reception room. Please be polite," and went upstairs hurriedly.

　Then, before we knew it, we were taken to a reception room at the back of the store.
